Cool, I’ve always wanted to see how thin and portless a car could get. Can’t wait for the Ferrari Pro Max, with only one door and a proprietary fuel pump system.
Got a tip for us?

It would be the end of Ferrari
Another race to the bottom with inane juvenile comments.
That new headshot doesn't hold a candle to Blue Steel
My god, I thought for sure you were kidding until I looked it up... When did it come to mind that they needed the iTunes guy on their board? I'm convinced Cue is just one of those people who is a born schmoozer, but I just can't see what value he's adding at the end of the day.
Ive on the board would makes sense, actually, but CEO seems weird.
Of course, I don't think Ferrari operates by normal business rules. After the pressure cooker of Apple, running Ferrari would probably just be a part time job.
ferrari has a revolving door of firing and hiring culture, if they do end up hiring ivy he won't be there for long. and since seb left ferrari i'm no longer a fan of ferrari 
Just a PSA, people shall not be driving a vehicle while it is being refueled.
But that design fail is still epic.
Jony Ives! Dam now I'm gonna have to get one of those Ferraris too! And I had just saved up enough to get the AirPods Max. man! Can't get a break.
If you’re talking about Ive then that would be a single piece of “aluminium”.The car with the built entirely out of single piece of “aluminum”.
I don’t think Ive wants to do anything outside of the design process, maybe he’s being considered for head of design or something but definitely not CEO.
If there’s any truth to this, it would certainly continue Ive’s recent evolution toward designing impractical luxury goods.
Jonny Ive will remove the seats to make the car thinner then tell us they’re out of date peripherals anyway.
Hiring Apple execs to lead a company isn’t always a good idea, just ask JCPenney.

Everyones saying its bizarre. . .not that bizzare: when has a ceo ever been more than a figurehead? CEOs dont need to know things, so Jony Ive would be the perfect head.

Yeah, I do think, but maybe in a company where the industrial design were to be the core business.

The clean, minimalist design has already been claimed by Tesla.
Get ready for the unapologetically button-less, port-less, door-less Ferrari. And new colours.
But, seriously, I see how the synergy of pure design talent and automative excellence can make this marriage work, and I look forward to seeing the next-generation Ferraris.

That means you never were.ferrari has a revolving door of firing and hiring culture, if they do end up hiring ivy he won't be there for long. and since seb left ferrari i'm no longer a fan of ferrari
This rumor is the essence of rumors: Someone making stuff up out of the blue with absolutely no basis in reality.
OMG, could you imagine Ivy's making a car? He would want to remove windows, headlights, anything functional. Then he would turn the car into an aluminum block with wheels.
Inb4 any issues with the cars whatsoever - you’re driving it wrong.
Anyway, it will bend if anyone sits in it at the same time as a passenger.

Did Betsy ever get her carburetor overhauled and reinstalled? Last time I tried to check Scoopertino, it no longer existed. 🤔
